Yesterday, a patient who had a prosthesis implant surgery in Thailand came to have the stitches removed. Three weeks had already passed since the surgery. The incision was sutured with dissolving thread. Of course, the thread did not dissolve and remained in the scar... Dissolving thread is actually removable. It takes a long time to dissolve and disappear. It does not dissolve so much that you do not need to remove the stitches immediately. I saw a scab at the suture site inside the nostril, so I thought maybe... When I proceeded with the stitch removal, as I expected, the skin at the suture site had necrotized and the wound had opened up. There was also some infection and inflammation at the wound, so I first took antibiotics, but there are many cases where dissolving thread sutures do not dissolve and remain, causing inflammation and infection. I cannot deny the possibility that the inflammation would have spread if the stitches had not been removed... I never use dissolving thread in cosmetic surgery, but if we do not clearly communicate to patients that there are risks, it seems that only the benefits of not needing to visit the hospital or removing stitches are emphasized. If you are looking for cosmetic surgery, cosmetic surgery, underarm odor treatment, hyperhidrosis treatment, minor cosmetic surgery, mole removal, scar treatment, wrinkles, or sagging treatment in Nagoya, please contact Sakae Clinic.
